Was a 'nother colonel then I suppose. Don't want to stereotype, but some of the Brookstone crowd can be rather, well, vocal at times! I did call Brookstone BB in first round state playoff this year. They handled the visiting team (Jenkins county) well, so there was not a lot of griping from anyone. They were two good ball games anyway. It does seem that the "nuts" fall out more for the playoffs than regular season though.
Just did the GHSA softball clinic this past weekend, and one point brought out is the home team must provide Umpire escort/security at all games. This supposedly has been in force for a while, but I've never been escorted, or felt the need for it. We are now to report if escort is not provided. The required administrator now has the title of "game manager" all crowd control/security and such will be his/her responsibility.
Game protests are no longer allowed. This is due to the football game last season wher a protest was upheld, and the 4th qtr was replayed. Not sure whether I like that one or not, but we'll see.
